I am passionate about architecture's potential to build upon the character, environment, and culture of different communities. Working in an interdisciplinary and collaborative manner with a range of people motivates my work in the field where its intersections can facilitate meaningful responses.

Combobulation Station: Architecture in an Uncanny Ecology
The proposal is a neighbourhood-scale intervention, culminating in the form of a ‘combobulation station’. This is an uncanny anthropocenic re-interpretation of what we know today as community recycling centres: facilities that handle the processing, sorting and transferring of inorganic goods. This station represents my reaction to the feelings of discombobulation around current climate conversations, a place where familiarity with our everyday habits has been fragmented, provoking the uncanny and the surreal.
The project explores the question: How can a neighbourhood-scale architectural intervention translate the ecological mega-narrative of the Anthropocene? The project also recognises the intrinsic value that our objects harbour in being the extension of our everyday lives. Here, domestic objects are small-scale tools for communicating a surreal and large ecological narrative.
